Not many choices to pick from if you want Axel-back only.

Fujitsubo & Tanabe are probably the top 2 choices. Both aren't really loud but Tanabe would be the louder one of the 2. My choice would be the Tanabe.

Or

Greddy SE or Greddy Ti-C (Both axel back, and most likely both louder than Tanabe.

Or, you can just replace the mufflers...

Just throwing another option out there, but you will most likely have to chop off the stock ones and weld new ones on. That's the cheapest route, but if you want to leave everything in tact, the above suggestions would be best.

i suppose you have a sedan, right? then i never seen fujitsubo one for sedan yet, is it new? i was choosing between tanabe and hks hi power, and picked the tanabe. sound is really NOT loud at all, but i personally like the look over hks. i suggest u go for cat for better look (ti tips) better performance and louder sound.

Impul is another option for axle back if you don't mind the hefty price tag. It costs a pretty penny.

I think the fuji is coupe only. I have the Tanabes on my 09 sedan. Sounds good, not loud at all.

HKS has an axle back. It is really agressive looking and not for the boring type. Best part is that it is really quiet and does not drone like some of the others.

Lot of happy Tanabe Medalion owners on here, only time they've been returned are for being too loud.

When you said "chop," do you mean that figuratively or literally?
